Note To Users
This version of firmware brings a new look and feel to the camera’s User Interface (UI). In addition to many new
features, it offers easier and more efficient access to many key functions, better organization of the Main Menu,
Properties Settings and Custom Functions, and allows room for addition of future features.
If you’re familiar with previous firmware versions, you may find the new UI to be slightly different. Our extensive
customer research, which assessed the impact on users migrating from previous firmware versions, indicates you
should allow a reasonable amount of time to adjust to the new UI’s features. Beta testing has provided extremely
positive feedback once users have familiarized themselves with the UI.

without compromising your valuable Lossless original Raw Tiff files. In addition to saving processed files, users
